The Rzymn Job
2 primary works Complete
Book 1
Six of Crows meets Lore Olympus
Sefoni Rience would do anything to save her cousin, the queen, even venturing unchaperoned to the seedy side of town in an attempt to hire Haid Vortinen.
Haid, sometimes known as the Lord of the Dead, is a criminal mastermind, disgraced nobleman, tavern owner, and thief. He agrees to assist Sefoni, but he wants something in return: her hand in marriage.
“Just a sham marriage,” he purrs, though the way he looks at her makes her clothes feel too tight. Six months in the criminal underworld, that’s all, and then it’s over. He needs her at his side to complete his masterwork—the perfect heist.
Six months of sneaking in windows, commandeering carriages, springing strongmen from prison, lying to the nobility, flirting with guards, breaking into safes for gold, and creating diverting distractions.
Six months with Haid.
Just a sham marriage.
The queen’s reputation is on the line. Her safety. Maybe her very life. Sefoni can’t say no.
But what if, after six months, she doesn’t want to leave?

Book 2
The heist fantasy duology concludes
Trapped in the criminal underworld by the possibility of her husband’s seed having taken root in her womb, Sefoni Rience contemplates her options. She has never felt more alive than she does here with Haid and his crew, and the job is Rzymn is not complete, of course. She can think of worse things than this marriage being real, much worse things than being tied to Haid Vortinen, thief and disgraced nobleman, forever.
When she isn’t pregnant, she finds herself disappointed.
So, she hides it.
After all, this man deceived her, didn’t he? It’s not because of honor that she’s now by his side and in his bed. If she also tricks him, they are even.
Meanwhile, the team works to put the pieces into play to complete the job in Rzymn. Cadon and Pairce struggle to trust each other, even as they can only see each other in the dark. Tristanne and Mairli continue in lustful hatred.
Every day brings them closer to the perfect heist.
And every day, Sefoni’s belly doesn’t swell.
Every day is a day closer to the day when she must reveal her secret.
